Cephalanthera × schaberi H.Baumann 1980 Photo by © Jan Van Lent and his The Orchid Paradise: Lesvos A Hornets Nest

Common Name Schaber's Cephalanthera

Flower Size

Found in Turkey and Lesbos as a natural hybrid between C longifolia and C epipactoides.

CAUTION!!!I have no way of personally veryifing this determination. It is very possible that this orchid is C schultzei [C damasonium and C longifolia] as well as all the potential parents are found on Lesbos where the plant was found.
